"XML Reload" removes loaded XSLT about xmlnotepad HOT 4 OPEN

Ah, sounds like a great idea, so if you are on the XSLT transform tab and the XML file changes, and the user clicks Reload, then automatically rerun the transform. Is this what you want?

Good question ..

I would say: the base feature should be to not! lose the connection to the XSL.

The "rerun/reload" topic can be seen in a complex way:
3 situations (XML has changed / XSL has changed / XML and XSL has changed) can be answered in
2 ways (reload / rerun) in
3 modes (ask always / do it always / don't do it)

Maybe some "possible combinations" are useless, but at the moment I don't have an idea which combinations are useful and how to handle it. But I think that's not the highest priority ;-)

Got it so how about we add to the Options dialog

• Auto-reload XML
• Auto-reload XSLT

Where the property has a drop down with 3 values [Always, Prompt, Never], where the behavior we see today is [Prompt] for XML and [Never] for XSL. If you change it to [Always], [Always] you get the fully "live" reload behavior (which is what VS code does). Maybe the status bar will tell you that a reload happened.

Could also play with:

• Auto-reload XSD

For me this would be fine, but I'm always hoping for some comments of other users.
